Attachment

Fear & desire
two faces of attachment 
to mind body
cause of discontentment 

Doer seeking
consciousness expansion 
in ego craving
in domain of maya illusion

Seeking eternal
in the external ephemeral 
an ego delusion 
drawing in destiny inimical 

Clear recognition 
that we are not body entity 
makes us reflect
feeling in silence tranquility 

Entering stillness 
silencing the flow of thought
imbibing the elixir 
bliss by divine grace brought

Body instrument 
aligns with our true presence
magnetised form
blissfully joyful in permanence 

Devoid of identity
egoic fears & desires vaporise
as a mist of bliss
delight in each divine surprise
